If Boston Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla wanted to talk up his team a bit as they transition from the season they won Banner 18 in to the campaign they will pursue their next title in, you could hardly blame the guy.

But in a recent, wide-ranging interview with Andscape's Marc J. Spears, Mazzulla revealed that something different has been happening in Boston since the Celtics won it all. "There will never be a year when winning a championship isn’t the most important thing," explained Mazzulla. "So, there’s no sense in talking about (Banner) 19."

Joe Mazzulla and his Celtics players had very different reactions to the team's new championship rings on Tuesday.
